‘To close or not to close?’ - Council debates the $3.5 million aquatic question BY JENNA SWAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS Following the closure of the aquatic centre earlier this year the Town of Sylvan Lake ordered an audit of the building to assess needed repairs to. Over the past months since closure, council has received reports from the audit process detailing the damage with a final verdict on the aquatic centre finally coming to pass Monday evening at Town Council. A detailed building audit report and recommendations were presented to Council revealing the building no longer meets Alberta Health Service standards, nor current structural codes. While the pool basin itself is in good shape the building suffers from premature deterioration due to an inadequate air handling system, which increased moisture and humidity levels in the facility. Council heard from the Public Works department on a numbers of areas in need of repair including corroded columns and roof trusses, upgrades to roof trusses to accommodate snowdrift load from the future NexSource Centre, replacement of the pool deck, replacement of entire heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC)system, upgrades to pool piping, upgrades to the circulating pump, upgrades to the hair filter, as well as a need for a mold/ mildew assessment, and a number of other items including lobby work and washroom work. Following the audit, Council was made aware
of the cost of the projected project which would would weigh in at between $2.57 million - $3.5 million. With the unbudgeted expense on the table, council was left to debate the topic among one another. Councillor Prete posed the question, “Is there any possibility we just shut the doors and don’t reopen?” Mayor McIntyre followed by saying he felt given the overall condition of the building it would seem ‘irresponsible to abandon the asset’. “A community the size of ours has a certain expectation that we will have an aquatic centre,”said McIntyre. “With that expectation in place and the valuable asset we have on the ground at the aquatic centre I think it does make sense to repair the facility and bring it up to a level where it is suitable to be adjoined to the Nexsource Centre.” Councillor Plante agreed with McIntyre stating he felt it was a necessity for a community the size of Sylvan Lake to have an aquatic centre. Councillor Lust added, “I think if we close the doors of the aquatic centre - none of us will be sitting at this table in 2017.” Following debate Council was left to decide which course of action would need to be taken and determined they would award the design contract for the structural steel repairs to a firm yet to be determined, Council would be approving the expansion of Clark Builders’ construction management scope from just the building of the Nexsource Centre to

that of the repairs and upgrades at the aquatic centre. They also determined the building would
not be reopened until all necessary repairs and upgrades were completed. All motions were passed
unanimously with all Councillors in favour of the repairs by the end of debate.

Following these deliberations Council also approved a $3.5 million budget for the repairs, but tabled the topic of where that money would come from until a later date. Public Works provided Council with a number of potential current projects they could defer in order to find the money for the repairs including but not limited too: Centennial Streets upgrades, 53 Street modernization, 44 street rehabilitation and Lakeshore Drive from 33 Street to Highway 20 all of which pull funds from the Municipal Sustainability Initiative (MSI). The repairs are expected to be complete by Fall 2016 and the building will remain closed until all repairs are completed. editor@sylvanlakenews.com

SYLVAN LAKE FIRE DEPARTMENT TO RECEIVE NEW TRUCK Council awarded a $1.7 million tender to the Sylvan Lake Fire Department on Monday evening during Sylvan Lake Town Council for the purchasing of a new aerial ladder truck. The fire department expects to see the new truck arrive following an expected build time of 12-14 months and the new unit will boast a life expectancy of around 25 years. Council said they felt it would be irresponsible not to have such a unit in the town with the increasing number of higher level apartment buildings being built. The truck will be purchased from Wholesale Fire & Rescue - the same company used by Leduc, Olds, Stettler, Airdrie, and Medicine Hat to purchase their aerial ladder trucks. SYLVAN LAKE RECREATION & CULTURE DEPARTMENT NO LONGER TO HOST POND HOCKEY TOURNEY With registration numbers and sponsorships down in 2015 and the economy likely to be struggling in 2016, the Sylvan Lake Recreation & Culture Department decided during a presentation to Town Council on Monday they will
no longer be hosting the annual Pond Hockey Tournament. Given the lack of interest shown by a community to group to organize the annual Pond Hockey Tournament it is unsure if the event will continue unless members of the community or from local organizations come forward to organize the event. Council debated whether the event could be added to the same weekend as Winterfest to cut down on costs but no final decision was made in this regard. Mayor McIntyre stated anyone wishing to take over the event organization and finances would be given a ‘blueprint’ on how to run it. SPRAY PARK COMMITTEE SEEKING COMMUNITY SUPPORT Having been accepted as possible recipients of a $100,000 grant, the Sylvan Lake Spray Park Committee is looking for the help of the community to vote for them in a Canada wide initiative. The Aviva Community Fund has created positive changes in 192 communities across Canada since 2009, to the tune of $5.5 million and Sylvan Lake could be next. There initiative involves an 18-day voting period from October 6th – October 23rd with voters only allowed to vote once each day. Online voting will be on
the www.avivacommunity fund.org website with the Spray Park Committee encouraging residents to follow the details on their Facebook page by searching Sylvan Lake Spray Park.Finalists will be announced November 3rd, and winners announced December 2nd. The committee asks residents to help keep our families in Sylvan Lake instead of travelling elsewhere to a spray park, and help to provide another valuable recreational asset to our strong and vibrant community. KCS ASSOCIATION DENIED CHANGES IN LEASE AGREEMENT Earlier this month the Association which works in the early learning, special needs and family supports area was denied lower lease rates during a regular Town Council meeting. Located within the Community Centre since the Town added onto the facility in 2003 specifically for KCS, the Town has been working between administration and the KCS Association president to bring lease payments up to market rates as they are currently paying below them. The new five year lease agreement includes a process in which the lease rate would reach 80% of market value during this time.

BY JENNA SWAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS For the sixth consecutive year local fundraiser and cyclist Coreen Spencer will be participating in the Alberta Ride to Conquer Cancer in August of 2016. Following the success of her 2015 ‘Game of Thrones’ initiative in which Spencer placed toilets on the lawns of Sylvan Lakers homes now has a new fundraising idea up her sleeve which the community is soon to see ‘flocking around’ The dedicated cyclist began fundraising for cancer and participating in the 232km ride after having watched an ad for the ride on T.V. a number of years ago. She explained it started as a personal challenge after having not been out on her bike in a number of years. The race also required participants to raise a minimum of $2,500. Although Spencer had not at this time been closely affected by cancer she still felt the cause was one she knew she wanted to support. Following her initial ride after having completed the gruelling two day trek through the foothills and raising the necessary funds to participate she received a call from her best friend. “About two months after that first ride she phoned and told me she had cancer,” remembers Spencer. “She wanted me to ride
Getting Flocked - Coreen Spencer is set to ride in the 2016 Alberta Ride to Conquer Cancer next August, but first she plans to raise as much money as possible. Having done the ride five previous times, this year’s fundraising effort will include a flock of flamingos popping up around town. Photo submitted
for her the next year so away I went and rode for her the next year, unfortunately from the date she was diagnosed she only made it about two months - so now every year I ride for her. “Now as the years go by I meet more and more people both through the ride and through the initiatives I do in the community like the toilets last year and they tell me stories of their friends and family members who have been diagnosed with cancer,”
Last year’s fundraising efforts by Spencer saw just under $15,000 going towards cancer research with just under $5,000 coming from her highly successful local initiative, ‘Game of Thrones’, which saw the cyclist sneaking around in the dead of night placing toilets on peoples lawns. Citizens were then required to make a donation to have the toilets moved to some one else’s lawn. This year Spencer plans to try a different and much
lighter to move approach. Sylvan Lakers can soon expect to see flocks of pink flamingos popping up on lawns across town. After the success of ‘Game of Thrones’ she hopes this year’s ‘Getting Flocked’ will have a similar result. Spencer explained a flock of 24 flamingos can be sent to your lawn by a friend or acquaintance. One of the birds will carry a card with information about the flocking. Recipients can then con-
tact her via email, text or phone call and arrange to have them sent to someone else for $40. “If they are curious people, they can pay an extra $10 to find out who sent them the flock,” she added. “The flock is moved under the cover of darkness to keep it more of a mystery and hopefully something funny for people to wake up to. The plan is to keep the flock moving until the end of October.” Spencer explained the campaign has become a magnet for local people to share their stories while also allowing her to meet many amazing people. She added she not only ride for her best friend each year, she now rides for each and every Sylvan Laker affected by cancer. “It’s heart warming for people to know that me as a stranger who they’ve never met is willing to do this ride for them,” she explained of the people she has met over the last five years. “We met all sorts of people last year just from picking the toilets up off lawns, we heard some incredible stories and met really great members of the community. “I’ve been given an able body combined with the strength and determination - ultimately the stubbornness - to be able to continue to do this ride, so I think I will keep doing it until I no longer have the body to be able to.” edior@sylvanlakenews.com

National Hunger Awareness Week reaches Sylvan Lake BY JENNA SWAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS The attention of the community is being brought towards the Sylvan Lake Food Bank this week in light of National Hunger Awareness week. Founded in 1987 by two Sylvan Lake women who would personally buy food for those struggling to make ends meet and hand deliver it, the local food bank has since become a hub of community support and an important resource for more than 200 families each year. In 2014 the Sylvan Lake Food Bank, which is run out of the basement of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, assisted 222 families over the months, distributing 625 hampers of food. Of those 222 families, 135 of them were single parent households. Pam Towers, who operates the food bank in conjunction with Olga Horaska and a group of dedicated volunteers said food banks across the country have changed greatly over the years in terms of usage and reasons for residents having to use them. What hasn’t changed over the years according to Towers
is the level of support the community has provided the food bank with. “The community of Sylvan Lake is an amazing place - it’s been really incredible to watch the support people offer to one another and help them out in their times of need,” said Towers. “I never get used to the overwhelming support the food bank has experienced from residents, it touches your heart.” She added the food bank has become more than just a place for those struggling to make ends meet - the food bank is a way to show there are people in the community who care about them. “We care - we don’t want to see people not having enough to eat and we want them to know there are other people in the community who love them and care about them,” “If you look at our society, our culture, our economy nothing is as stable as it used to be, “We don’t have the family support systems we used to have, gone are the days where you move down the street from your mom and dad, people are coming and living in our community from across Canada and the world and many of these people don’t have family here to help them
Legion short on volunteers for annual poppy campaign BY JENNA SWAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS The Royal Canadian Legion is short on volunteers this year for their annual poppy campaign. Volunteers are responsible for delivering poppy boxes to businesses and schools around town as well as collecting funds from local businesses who regularly donate additional funds to the Legion. Each year from the last Friday in October until Remembrance Day Legions across Canada conduct poppy sales, with donations going to support the services provided by the legion. The Poppy campaign also serves as a way for Canadians to show their recognition of the debt owed to veterans and those who lost their lives
to give the country freedom. A number of local legion programs benefit from the poppy campaign, the majority of which are geared towards assisting veterans and their families as well as 15 local non-profit organizations who receive annual contributions from the Legion. Bob Osmond, Legion member and chair of the local poppy campaign stated the shortage perpetuates a current issue facing Legions across the country - a lack of volunteers and members. “We are entering a time where WWII predates most people alive,” explained Osmond. “Fewer and fewer people, especially young people, have personal ties and connections and there are fewer veterans of WWII around
to connect us with that time and tell their stories, “My children and my grandchildren’s generations have a vague memory of the sacrifices veterans have made - the poppy campaign is a fundraising campaign yes but it is also a profile raising initiative involved with Remembrance Day to keep those sacrifices in the minds of people.” Osmond added how in the past veterans of the first and second world wars would visit schools and tell their stories and attempt to register with students the importance of the wars and the sacrifices those who served made. However with fewer and fewer veterans able to share their stories Remembrance Day ceremonies throughout schools are slowly chang-

through tough times.” She added the local food bank is unique amongothers across the province in that they are nearly self sustaining, receiving only a small pool of money from the Alberta Food Bank Network. This leaves the organization depending on the support of the community for food and cash donations to remain operable. “We are incredibly well supported by the local grocery stores,” explained Towers. “Each week we have some one who goes around and picks up stock from the stores which they have donated to us and it really is just overwhelming the amount of support we get.” On a regular basis the most needed food donations is baby food in jars, as well as cereal, soup, rice, canned meats and vegetables, pasta sauce and pasta, peanut butter, and beans. This year’s annual Scout and Girl Guides food drive will take place on Oct. 8th beginning at 6 p.m. with members of the two organizations going door to door gathering donations. Towers wished to thank volunteers Frank and Vonda Steckler, Shirley and Dale Mannix, Ivan and Marie Jensen, Valerie Steckler, Diane Worth, Randi Scheffelmaier, and Donna Ellerby for all of their hard work. editor@sylvanlakenews.com

Center. The conference titled ‘Where Do We Go From Here’ aims to bring awareness to the issues facing seniors as well as their adult children while informing them of what resources are available in the community to promote senior health and wellness. The conference begins at 4:30 p.m. with the first of two sessions available throughout the day being presented by Alberta Caregivers Association. Maryon Weenink, program co-ordinator for the Sylvan Lake Seniors Association, stated it is important for the caregivers of seniors to know twhat resources the community can provide to them. “Caregivers need to be
well themselves in order to take care of some one else,” explained Weenink in an interview with Sylvan Lake News. “Often we will hear from caregivers they feel alone - but we want them to know there are many resources available to them, “It’s important they remain healthy and know where to get those supports and resources so they can be the best possible caregivers.” Following the session dinner will be served at 6 p.m. with entertainment by ‘Spectrum’. At this time attendees are also invited to browse the many information booths available detailing resources available from local organizations. The second session will be highly beneficial to both

SUBMITTED BY BUNNY VIRTUE SYLVAN LAKE & DISTRICT ARCHIVES One of the first places to eat on the lakefront was a hot dog stand operated by the Snell family in 1931. The stand was in front of their cabin, called “Butt Inn”, which in 1933 was sold to a Mrs. Collins to become the Home Grill. The stand itself was an old car chassis with the frame covered in old canvas and painted a bright green with red diamonds and white printing. Even during the depression, the business was a success with hot dogs and egg sandwiches costing 10 cents each. Perhaps the sign by the stand contributed to its success reading,
“CUM & EAT BEFORE WE BOTH STARVE”!! Nellie (Jarvis) Watson worked in several eating establishments in Sylvan Lake, and has fond memories of them – especially the Watkiss “Eat Café” in the vicinity of the present day Castaway Sports. She remembers white walls, red stools, a soda fountain and u-shaped counters – all very clean and inviting.
These were the war years and in Nellie’s own words, “nothing was more exciting than to have Mr. Watkiss tell us there was a ‘convoy’ in town. This meant 30 – 50 soldiers all wanting pie, coffee, and milkshakes. Of course, the staff of young girls were very interested in these visits. A favourite menu, particularly of the Australians, was a steak,

Proud to be a vegetarian for nearly two years
Curling Club
BY JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN
(5218 51 St. Bentley)
I have been a pesco-vegetarian (pesco meaning I eat fish and seafood) for nearly two years now without having eaten a bite of beef, chicken, lamb, pork or any other mammal. I made the choice to not eat meat after seeing a documentary that reveals the horrors of what animals go through right before being slaughtered. From what I have seen documented, a slaughter house is far worse than any blood and terror filled horror movie I have ever seen. Actors and actresses may be filmed being killed in a number of gruesome ways, however we all know that that is just acting. However, what goes on in slaughter houses isn’t just acting, the animals are being
slaughtered. After seeing a cute baby pig being stunned with a bolt to the head, shaking in shock and then falling over dead, I simply could not eat another bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich again. The slaughtering of pigs is not the only animal that has been documented, as I have seen how cows and chickens are treated as well. Why do they have to die? Just so I can eat them? There are plenty of fruits and vegetables out there that I would much prefer to eat instead of meat. My choice to not eat meat is firmly based on my opinion of ‘why eat the animal when I can eat delicious fruits and vegetables?’. I will admit I do have the occasional cravings for meat however I have figured out ways to deal with that and still not eat meat. When
cooking I use store-bought flavourings that make food taste somewhat like meat. Converting to a lifestyle of not eating meat wasn’t easy at first. Rummaging around in the fridge to find something to eat was a challenge as nearly everything good had meat in it. Family dinner was another story as I have married into a Chinese family and I have seen a variety of different animal parts served for dinner. Proving to my family that I can stick to my own personal commitments I now find my mother-in-law cooking me noodles and adding nuts, lettuce and other vegetables to the mix and guess what, it tastes great! Here’s another bonus to not eating meat, I have found it far harder to gain weight. This may be because meat can be very fatty and the
fat you’re eating is animal fat. I was never particularly fat before but would notice how if I ate chicken wings I would begin to gain weight. All in all I am proud of myself for standing up for what I believe in. I wouldn’t judge anyone else for eating meat but I would have a hard time eating it myself. What more can I say, I guess I love animals. reporter@sylvanlakenews.com

H.J. Cody School hosted a meeting Wednesday night where Chinook’s Edge School Division representatives gave updates on the progress of the town’s new school. The construction for the school is now underway on Beacon Hill with a planned opening date of Sept. 2016. This school is being built due to the need for another elementary school in town and will have the capacity to educate 500 students. The school has not yet been named but the division is asking the community for their input and ideas. This can be done by going online to www.surveymonkey.com/r/NewSylvan SchoolNameSuggestion. This website will ask for a name suggestion, a historical reason or importance of the suggested name, as well as email address or phone number of the person submitting the suggestion. The division is looking for input from the community so they can have a unique perspectives on the history
of the town said associate superintendant for corporate services for Chinook’s Edge School Division Shawn Russell. More information will be available in meetings on Oct. 28 (at H.J. Cody School) and on Nov. 25. The next meeting will discuss potential boundaries for C.P. Blakely School, École Steffie Woima School and the new school. “The new school will be populated by current students at C.P. Blakely School and École Steffie Woima School so it will have an impact on a number of students and families in the community,” Russell said. “Your designated school would be within the boundaries we develop through this process.” Boundaries will be put in place to balance students between the schools to avoid over population. “We have a large number of elementary kids and we have to make sure we are making the best use of all three of our facilities,” Russell said. reporter@sylvanlakenews.com

ers and clothing lines. Looks for the evening will range from casual to dressy and host everything from cozy fall jackets to unique and affordable tunics. Attendees will also see everything from the basic black pant to fashion pants ranging from plaid to paisley. Manager of Cobb’s Clothing Debbie Fisher stated the evening is going to be a great way for women in the community to gather for a fun night while seeing the latest trends in affordable fashion. “I think for some people fashion can really set you apart,” said Fisher. “Whether you are going for a job interview and want to stand out or you are going out some where and want to leave a lasting impression then you need to dress accordingly.”
“Maybe you feel like you have a few things in your closet that may be outdated - but if you have that nice black piece or a new skinny leg pant it can really help to modernize an existing outfit.” She added the show will see a lot of red and black as they seem to be the colours of the season. In addition to the fall preview outfits being modelled will be stunningly complimented with unique footwear from local retailer Saks Shoes who will fit the models with footwear for the evening. On top of the fashion frenzy for the evening those wishing to order a full meal or wine may order from the menu for an extra cost outside of admission. editor@sylvanlakenews.com

These activities included spray painting, group art projects, and a bannock brunch with elk stew made by Cindy Leclerc who displayed dream catchers, sage, a drum, among other things representing first nations. This year’s culture days were less hectic than in previous years said library programmer Corrie Brown. This was due to the library not receiving a grant which in previous years has allowed for more artists and musicians. “In previous years it’s something we have gotten a grant to do,” Brown said. “This year we dialed back a lot of what we were going to do. We just used up some materials that we had saved up and got creative with what we could do.” Even though the culture days was smaller, Brown said it was still good admitting she was slightly disappointed. “I think I was more disappointed than anyone else, but I think what we were able to do was still well appreciated,” she said. The most popular event out of it all seemed to be the bannock brunch as there were 24 people at one time who attended. The spray painting outside proved to be popular as well and attracted many children. “We had a lot of people participate in that throughout the day,” Brown said. “We had about 20 finished products.” Even with things being low key this year, Brown said there was a lot of good feedback from the people
the ball pit they had set up outside and inside. She said it was great seeing kids jumping into it and picking up the balls afterwards. “I think the kids enjoyed that the most,” Brown said.

7-5 was not in their favour. Even with losing this exhibition game, Nesbitt is still happy with the boys and is very excited to start the season “[We have] lots of energy and a big strong team,” Nesbitt said. He sees the hockey season as going really well, with
the hockey club hopefully being packed full of fun for the boys this year. The team is made up of first, second and third year players who are equipped with a lot of speed and energy Nesbitt said. “It’s a good mixture of a bunch of kids,” he said. The team is showing they
are not going to give up when they play and practice as he said they just keep battling out there. He is noticing how the players are aware of their surroundings on the ice and during the game and improving how they play in tight spaces. This season Nesbitt plans

Tigers win season’s first game against Red Deer TBS BY JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS The Sylvan Lake West Central Tigers Peewee ‘AA’ hockey team played their season’s first game against the Red Deer TBS in town and won 8-1. This win makes head coach Jim Lawrence happy as he said his team has a good crop of new players, some from out of town and some from in town. In winning this game the players affirmed their skill level and ability not only to their coach, but to the opposing team and all the parents watching above. “They can all play the game,” Lawrence said. “You can tell by the way they play they have passion and skill.” This game sets the mark for the season and Lawrence said his outlook is good as he knows the players are ready to work hard. The team has two good goalies and the players are good at playing the game up front and forward. He said he is very happy with the team and the
players he has are what he was looking for during try outs. “At this age and in most levels skill wins,” Lawrence said. “Everybody is always going to work hard but in the end skill, competitiveness and drive wins hockey games.” To help his players further build their skills he is going to get his team to do a lot of different activities. The team still has 31 regular season games to play and in order to win each game the players have to practice constantly. This includes practicing at a speedy rate and giving the players challenges to overcome, although he said practices will still be fun and the players will have a good year. “They are young men and growing into themselves so we’re going to practice like we would compete in every game,” Lawrence said.

Top Canadian athletes reveal injury recovery tips Whether you’re an elite athlete or an active baby boomer, inflammation and pain is part of the game when it comes to competing in sports or being active. The key is how you manage and protect your body from these inevitable aches and pains to maintain an active and healthy lifestyle regardless of age. Top athletes looking for an edge when it comes to recovery from training or major injury are now turning to alternative solutions including all-natural nutritional supplements to aid in their pain management efforts. Professional Car Racing Driver Alex Tagliani, 41, from Lachenaie, Quebec discovered Reeliv5, a natural pain relief nutritional supplement developed by Nature’s Treasure, to help him recover from the wear and tear of the racing season. “During a race my body and joints undergo incredible stress for several hours due to bumpy tracks, high G forces from heavy deceleration with brakes and 385 Km/h corner speed,” Tagliani explains. “To prepare for an intense season of racing, I submit my body to heavy lifting and intense strength training, which cause tears, inflammation and pain. I use Reeliv5, to help protect my body and keep
the pain and inflammation away to make sure I can fully prepare and maintain 100 per cent focus while driving.” The supplement, approved by Health Canada, is a mixture of powerful all natural active ingredients which helps reduce joint pain and inflammation, increases mobility and flexibility, repairs cartilage damage and boosts tissue regeneration. Former professional NHL goaltender Manny Fernandez, 41, from Blainville, Quebec, used the supplement to help in his recovery from major knee surgery for a successful return to the league with the Boston Bruins. “This formula, which I call a ‘miracle’, helped me get back in perfect shape, pain-free and gave me the confidence I needed.” According to Martin Lachaine, President of Nature’s Treasure, active boomers and seniors suffering from joint pain, and inflammation, bursitis, tendonitis, back pain and other problems related to aging have found relief and a return to their sporting activities using the natural supplement as an alternative or complement to their current pain management plan. More information on coping with pain from exercise can be found at www. reeliv5.com www.newscanada.com

New boat launch location up for debate BY PAUL COWLEY RED DEER ADVOCATE A draft study does not support locating a boat launch at a controversial site near the Summer Village of Half Moon Bay on Sylvan Lake. Consultants were hired to undertake a detailed study of potential boat launches sites for the lake, which doesn’t haveenough access points, creating traffic jams
at the few existing launches on prime summer days. One option that has been considered is at the end of Range Road 2-1 on the east side of Half Moon Bay. The spot had long been a makeshift launch point, generating complaints about traffic, noise and garbage from nearby property owners. Despite those issues, there was support from others to install parking, washrooms
and a formal boat launching area there. The draft Sylvan Lake Boat Launch Access Strategy and Action Plan for Recreational Lake Access recommends against building a launch ramp at Range Road 2-1, saying it doesn’t meet the minimum design criteria. A pair of other sites near Norglenwold have various environmental restraints, but those issues could be

worked around through good design, the consultants suggest. A third site north of the summer village on a point of land also has potential but would require measures to protect the launch from wind and wave action. Another site, located within the summer village itself, has been earmarked in Norglenwold’s own plans as a non-motorized launch only. The most recent study did not include what is likely the top option for a boat launch at the end of Range Road 2-2 in Lacombe County. It is an undeveloped road allowance northwest of Half Moon Bay on the west edge of Scouts Canada’sCamp Woods. That was already examined in a

2010 study that determined it was suitable for a boat launch. Consultants made no recommendations on which site to pursue. And when, and if, a new boat launch will be built is up tothe eight municipalities around the lake that form the Sylvan Lake Management Committee. “The report highlighted what can be done,” said Phil Lodermeier, Lacombe County manager of operations. “It’s now up to municipalities to decide what’s to be done and how to fund it.” Range Road 2-2 probably remains the best option, he told council on Thursday. Coun. Rod McDermand expressed some frustration with how long it has taken to find a way to improve lake access.
“This has been going on forever,” he said, adding all of the studying has cost tax dollars. The most recent study cost about$190,000. “Sooner or later there has to be something built. This is getting silly. I don’t know how we go on and on and on.” Coun. Ken Wigmore, who chairs the Sylvan Lake Access Management Steering Committee, said the study is a “great step forward.” It both provides the necessary planning groundwork needed to go ahead with a launch. Council voted unanimously to support the draft plan, recommending that the previous study on Range Road 2-2 be included in the final report. pcowley@reddeeradvocate.com

Victim Services receives largest donation in organization’s history BY JENNA SWAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS Sylvan Lake & District Victim Services Unit received a donation of $6,667 from Wild Rapids Waterslide Park on Monday afternoon. The donation was the largest ever received by Victim Services with the organization’s program coordinator, Jennifer Plotnikoff stating the funds will go a lengthy way to ensure their volunteers and board members
have the best possible training. Charlie Everest, general manager of Wild Rapids stated the business donated $1 from every full day general admission sold over the summer. “Before this we donated to the Bears and our fundraising was annually going towards a different sporting area,” explained Everest. “This year we decided to mix it up a little bit and decided we wanted to give back to the community in a different way - one that
Decrease in litter found at lake’s bottom this year BY JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS The 12th annual underwater cleanup took place last Sunday at the lake and volunteers recovered about 800 lbs of garbage. This is a decrease in comparison to the 1,000 lbs of garbage collected last year and executive director for the Alberta Underwater Council, Cathie McCuaig said we seem to be in a maintenance mode. “Instead of removing all the old previous year’s (garbage), we’ve gotten rid of all that now and we’re just working a year at a time now,” she said. The cleanup went smoothly and McCuaig added they were pretty happy with the volunteer turnout of 26 divers, 22 shore supporters and 10 paddlers who were happy with the amount of garbage collected. Everyone worked really well together and everything was all packed up by 2 p.m. Beverage containers and clothing were among the most collected. Fishing hooks and line from people fishing off the pier were retrieved as well, along with about 50 golf balls. A lot of broken glass was col-
lected from the shallow water which may put parents’ minds at ease as now their children can play safely in the water. Two things that were found but weren’t salvageable were a Blackberry and an iPhone. The volunteers were pretty happy with their results and with the efforts they had made after their cleanup explained McCuaig. “They were all pretty glad that they came out and contributed,” she said. To help teach children about the dangers of littering, families came out and helped clean up around the shore. “We had lots of local residents that came out to support us and that was exciting,” McCuaig said. She suspects that the garbage found on the bottom of the lake is more intentional than accidental as she said people will be out on the lake in small inflatable raffs and throw their empty containers overboard. But she also said the wind can do crazy and unexpected things causing unintentional litter. “The wind can even blow clothing into the water sometimes,” McCuaig said. reporter@sylvanlakenews.com
would make a lasting impact.” Angela Kinzel, assistant coordinator for Victim Services, was also on hand Monday to thank Everest for their donation in which she explained the organization can be seen in a number of ways assisting Sylvan Lake residents and the RCMP. “We are there for the victims - the police may call on us to be there to assist the victim and support them,” said Kinzel. “The RCMP are there to investigate, not to comfort necessarily - we are the emotional side of things when it comes to everything from sudden deaths, suicides, domestic assaults,
robberies, fire arm incidents, house fires, and really everything in between. “We can even refer people to programs for kids, mental health, financial issues, food, clothing, and shelter - for almost everything we can find some one to help you.” Kinzel and Plotnikoff added Victim Services are always looking for volunteers to work alongside the RCMP. Volunteers are responsible for going to calls after regular business hours and undergo training from the Solicitor General online as well as a take part in a number of hands on training programs to ensure they have
